Don't let the CP homer brigade get you down, they will tear down any QB to give themselves a shred of hope where Alex Smith is concerned. Shit, last offseason several people here insisted Alex was better than Big Ben. The True Fans keep having to learn their lessons the hard way...enjoy your success and downfield passing.

people shit all over Wilson for playing terrible (and he was bad) for the first 55 minutes ... but 2 of those picks were not his fault at all ... and the other 1 to Kearse in the end zone ... I mean, come on ... help your QB out. but then he gets the ball in OT after scoring 2 TD's in regulation ... and makes two of the prettiest passes you'll see ... and all anyone wants to talk about is the 4 picks. ...if Brady had that same game, with that same finale, he would have added to his legend and everyone would have ran around here talking about how he's the clutchest player ever and omg omg omg he just gets it done when it counts? Russell? 4 picks! |

Clay,
Do you disagree that several (not necessarily all) of the following QB's would have won the SB playing QB for Seattle last season? Big Ben Luck Eli Flacco Rodgers Romo Ryan Brady Manning Brees

so when Brady and Manning is debated ... don't you think you should apply this to the debate? Brady won 3 Super Bowls, in your opinion, as a game manager with an elite team. After those Super Bowls, he transformed his game and became ELITE, and since that transformation he has 0 Super Bowl wins and 2 AFCCG losses to Peyton Manning. so how is Brady better than Manning? I'm pretty sure Manning was Andrew Luck level ELITE from the second he walked into the NFL. Right? Or does this not fit your narrative? |

You still have yet to explain how someone as totally dependent on the running game and defense as Wilson is deserves to be the highest-paid quarterback in the league.

Also,
Alex Smith is not Russell Wilson, but their situations are strikingly similar as both are called game managers with elite surrounding talent. Alex Smith is the great value version of Russell Wilson. Good enough to get by, but not enjoy the real thing.

Give Rivers Pete Carroll as coach, Marshawn Lynch, and that defense, and he'd look like the best QB in the league.

and I still find it fantastically hilarious that Andrew Luck is just accepted as elite and that's that.
dude will end up being ELITE, I totally agree as of right now? If Russell Wilson isn't elite, Andrew Luck isn't even close to elite |

Trying to compare Brady to Wilson is like tying to compare Apples to Agent Orange. Completely different teams that play completely different brands of football which ask their quarterbacks to do completely different things. Not to mention that one is creeping towards the end of a long career during which he's managed to play at a very high level, including several 4000 yard seasons and nine AFC championship games, while the other is at the beginning.
I think a closer comparison to Russel Wilson *at this point* would be Troy Aikman. Who people also called a game manager because he played on a team heavily reliant on the running game and defense, who also won championships early. It's just the way perception goes. Guys who throw the ball 400 or 450 times a season just can't put up the kind of stats that guys who throw it 550 for 600 times do, so there's a perception that they're less. It's been that way for as long as I can remember and it's pretty much pointless to try to argue against it. Or maybe go toward the question of longevity. Ben Roethlisberger, still the youngest superbowl winning QB, led the Steelers to two championships in his first four years. Fast forward to today. Is he still among the elite? You'd probably see a lot of argument about that. The same thing may (or may not) happen with Wilson. Odds are he won't stay on top forever. Not many do. But it could happen. Of course the real central issue is people getting butt hurt over the use of the term "game manager". When in reality every successful quarterback is going to be a game manager. Brady's a game manager. Trick is he's asked to throw the ball a whole lot more than Wilson, because that offense is completely reliant upon him. I think that's where the real difference in perception between the two of them lies. So far. Wilson puts up some Drew Brees seasons and I doubt anybody will talk about him as a game manager. |
